Got the interview through a referral. It was pretty chill and easygoing, they said my resume and background were a good match. Talked straight with the department manager. It took a decent amount of time.

I had 2 rounds of interviews. First was a phone interview with the hiring manager, which was mainly an introduction to the role. Then, I had an on-site interview where I met with the hiring manager and some other team members.

I applied online for the Fulfillment Support Associate position through a job board, submitting my resume. A few days later, I received a phone call inviting me to an interview at their store in Huntington, NY. The interviewer was incredibly rude, discourteous, and unprofessional, making the experience feel more like an interrogation and frequently interrupting me. My voluntary work seemed unimportant to the interviewer, who only focused on my paid employment history. They questioned why I was looking for a job since I was currently unemployed and self-sufficient. At that point, I decided to end the interview and leave. It made me realize I'd be better off not working there given their treatment of potential employees.

Got a call on my cell to be at the store at 3PM Thursday, and go to the top floor via elevator. When I got off the elevator no one was around... I had yo wander around offices until I found someone... I found the Store Manager and Assistant. The interview was relaxed and very personal... not formal at all, which I like.
